About Our Rescue Group:

Madison Animal Rescue Foundation (MARF) is a rescue group located in Madison, Alabama. It is our goal to rescue dogs and cats from Madison Animal Control, which is so small, animals are usually only given 7 days before they are euthanized. We give these animals another chance by placing them in caring foster homes with fosters dedicated to training & socialization! We keep all of our animals an additional 7 days to learn their personality & temperament, hoping to ensure that your new pet fits perfectly into your family! It is our goal & our passion to save lives... one animal at a time!!

Our Adoption Process:

Our animals are rescued from Madison Animal Control, a very small, high kill animal shelter in Madison, Alabama. All animals are given health exams, including a heart worm test. They are up do date on all shots appropriate to age. All animals who are of age, have been spayed/neutered. For puppies/kittens, MARF will provide a scheduled time for the animal to be altered. Failure to comply with spay/neuter is a breach of the MARF adoption contract, and we reserve the right to re-claim the animal. Adoption fees vary depending upon age and breed. An adoption application must be filled out & will be reviewed by the organization director and/or foster. Our animals are strictly indoor/outdoor and we do not adopt out an animal who is to be kept exclusively outside. All adopters of “Bully Breeds” must own their home & have a fenced yard.

To meet a MARF animal: We currently have adoption events each Saturday from 11:00 am-3:00 pm at Petco on Highway 72 (Target shopping center) in Madison, Alabama! We may also hold special events, so please check our website for our events or location changes at www.madisonarf.org.

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder? When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
